Hey, I think both views can be true. For me, my stutter always disappears when I’m alone. With ample of preparation, I’ve also been able to speak fluently in front of large audiences. I once gave a 1...

The more you do it the easier it gets. Your developing an aversion and avoidance of the phone. I recommend going on the offensive. Make some call from home. Just keep your energy moving forward and re...

Answering the phone at work is a nightmare. (Advice wanted) Hi all, I work front of house at a bakery part time while I'm in school, I had a moderate stutter for a really long time. However, I I finis...

Joined a therapy center out of pure desperation/exhaustion. Here is the technique they use and there are some genuine testimonials (content is mine just rephrased it using gemini as English is not my native language. It's not fake)

I’m the same way. For a while I’ve just been bulldozing my way into speaking situations and doing what I gotta do, scared or not. Either it comes out ok or it’s dog shit but either way I’m not letting...

When you understand the protective power of the mask that caused the stuttering, you'll thank it and carefully keep it in your pocket. Know that it has unlimited credit. This is from someone who has w...

Yes this is what i have. Stopped stuttering now I'm 40 but still avoiding like crazy....

Risperidone and ecopipam have different mechanisms so there is no comparison there. You state: "For the average anxiety induced stutter it won't really change that much" That's not a claim that yo...

Maybe, and I am all for hope...but from my research it seems like anti-psychotics for stuttering is kind of dead end as even Ecopipam (which Macguire helped developed) is no longer being trialed for s...

The problem is the whole viability of anti-psychotics is based on a few sketchy studies in the early 2000's involving the same doctor: Gerald Maguire. Not saying they don't work but it probably won't ...

I have read the early studies about risperidone and olanzapine but from what I have seen the way they selected stutterers and tested for fluency is not that great. It seems most people who stutter do ...

You know nothing. 0.5mg is a minuscule dose compared to dosages that are given to schizophrenia, etc. Water can literally kill you if too much is taken, will you stop drinking water now? No. Stop sp...

I wouldn't make value claims like that when you are clearly unaware why risperidone may be a viable option to begin with...

Yep Abilify is a dopamine stabiliser / modulator. Xanax is a benzo which raises GABA A in the brain, essentially putting the brakes on hyperactive dopamine neurotransmitter....

I’m a senior in high school right now, and his situation sounds pretty similar to mine when I was his age. I was talkative around my family because words seemed to just naturally come out better aroun...

Once I started puberty around grade 8, something flipped in me and I became mega self conscious about my stutter. I definitely drifted down the popularity ranks and avoided people and class more. Star...

I haven't done the technique in years so I can't really remember. Even then I could never full disguise it....

It boils down to the question: to reveal that you are different than others and deal with their reactions or try to covert it. I know some stutterers who seemingly don’t care and some with little prob...

Wanting to be different

Wanting to be different Hi all, just have been contemplating a lot tonight and wanted to jot some things down. I'm sure many of you have gone through similar things and have had similar thoughts. I h...
